Charity Dinner
Charity Dinner - Friday 11th October 2024
125 people enjoyed a great night at the Regatta Charity Dinner on Friday night (11th) at the Davistown RSL. They were entertained by the musical offerings of Budi Bone and enjoyed a great meal provided by the club. Through a series of Auctions, Silent Auctions, Raffles and Lucky Dips a very generous crowd enabled us to raise almost $7,000 for the Kids with Cancer Foundation – a fantastic result for a very deserving charity who we have now supported for the last 6 years. A highlight was the live auctioning of a painting of the Davistown Waterfront generously donated by the artist – Lorraine Parker.
The running of the night and the setup of the auditorium could not be faulted and kudos must go t the Organising Sub-committee led by Doreen Mulcahy.
